Without our guide I would not have gone

Without this tour we would still be standing in line forever. Without our knowledgeable well informed guide the Vatican staff would have herded us past important artifacts. Without losing her patience due to crowd control redirections our guide brought history to life.
One of those must-do trips.

St Peter's basilica is stunning. Sistene chapel ceiling is stunning, and more so now knowing the story it tells. We did the early tour, 7.30am. Guide was passionate about Vatican City. Brilliant and informative. Kept group together. Still pretty busy, but we had space in the chapel. And on leaving, saw the queue. It would have been crammed later.

Our guide your guide Valentina Brasiello, Claudia Collacchi is very friendly and professional. However, she passed Stanze di Raffaello, which I desired to visit.

Our tour guide had been doing this for 17 years and was absolutely amazing! She was a wealth of knowledge and navigated us through the Vatican Museum, Basilica and Sistine Chapel with ease and expertise. A must do to fully experience this and appreciate all it represents.
Beautiful but not the best tour guide

Could easily have been 4 or 5 stars if we had a better tour guide. There was soo much to see but our tour guide was not good at communicating the information.
